Radiant Lit, Caged No More, and other sundry things.
Hello all! It’s been a WHILE since I have been in touch here and I apologize for that. The past few weeks have been incredibly crazy and we’ve had an insane number of things all hit at once! First, Radiant Lit was down for about 8 weeks. We suffered a huge hacking attack and it continued on and on despite our attempts to keep it up. It took moving it to a new hosting service and changing a LOT of the back end, but it’s finally back up! Now we just need to dig out from the crazy. Now, though, comes to the bigger reason. I have been, for the…

Review: The Sunken Realm by Serena Chase
The Sunken Realm by Serena Chase Genre: Fantasy Publisher: Candent Gate Date: September 28, 2015 I have a confession to make. I’ve been sitting on this review for a while. I could excuse it away with a busy schedule or laziness, but the reality is much different. See, this is the last book in a series. One of my favorite series. And the truth is, that I just don’t want this story to end. As brilliant and beautiful as this book is, it’s still the end and I’m not ready for it. I’m the person who refused to watch the last episode of Hart of Dixie for months and months…
